Lorene Bean

Lorene (Pritchett) Bean was welcomed into this world on June 1st, 1946 in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, the daughter of Tom and Betty Pritchett.

Lorene was the oldest of 7 siblings.  She grew up at an early age to help her dad raise her siblings.  They spent some time in Chicago and then moved back to Westville, where she graduated from Christie and met the love of her life, Luchin Bean.  They were married and had 3 children: Larry, Lenora and Lisa. Together they made a home and family, literally from their bare hands.

Lorene loved working in the yard, flowers, plants and anything that got her outdoors.  She was a very good softball player.   Lorene and her team mates were champions.  She had many trophies and was very proud too!  She enjoyed reading Nora Roberts books, watching wrestling, OKC Thunder games were like parties to her and she enjoyed every minute.  One of the things that she was most interested in was genealogy.  She would spend all day at libraries or cemeteries.

She cherished the time she spent with her children and grandchildren.  Lorene took care of people until the day she left this world.  She was a friend to everyone.  She loved everyone and they loved her too!
